Former FBI Assistant Directors Stated Their Opinion On Comey’s Dismissal

Three former assistant directors of the FBI appeared at Fox News Tuesday night, they wanted to share their opinion about President Donald Trump’s decision to fire James Comey.

Former FBI Assistant Directors James Kallstrom, Bill Gavin and Ron Hosko all thought Comey he took a big risk by not charging Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state.

“I’m glad it happened,” Kallstrom stated. “I think Jim Comey way back almost a year ago kind of forgot he was the FBI director.”

“Jim Comey danced with the devil, and later on down the road talked about this great investigation the FBI conducted,” he said.

“Of course, they had no subpoena power, they couldn’t compel any investigation or search warrants. They had to beg people to look at things. The interview of Hillary Clinton, in my view, was a sham.”

Comey “threw the FBI under the bus, and the reputation of the FBI under the bus,” Kallstrom continued. “That’s what I am very mad about and have been very mad about for a long time.”

Gavin said Comey’s firing was “something that had to happen.”

“Jim Comey is a bright guy, he’s an ethical guy, but the bottom line is when he made a prosecutive opinion in an investigative matter he made a mistake,” he added.

“We all make mistakes in life — this was a big one that was obvious to everyone.”

Hosko said Comey’s dismissal was “shocking” but he wasn’t surprised.

“Certainly there are going to be some FBI who think [Comey] went too far back in July,” Hosko said. “I think, that is, reasonable minds can agree, the province of the prosecutor.”

He thought Comey had to “throw himself on a grenade” over former Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s airport meeting with former President Bill Clinton. Comey’s dismissal was the “price he had to pay,” Hosko said.
